Methodology The claim is partially confirmed. Satoshi Nakamoto is estimated to hold approximately 1.1 million Bitcoins. The value of these holdings fluctuated around the statement date (May 30, 2026). Some sources from early 2026 and late 2025 indicated a value exceeding $100 billion (e.g., $110-130 billion in April 2026, $125 billion in August 2025, $120 billion in February 2026), which would indeed make Satoshi one of the wealthiest people on the planet. These coins are in known addresses on the public blockchain, traceable through patterns like Patoshi. However, the assertion that “not a single one has ever moved” is inaccurate. At least one outgoing transaction from Satoshi's address to Hal Finney is known to have occurred early in Bitcoin's history. While the vast majority of Satoshi's coins remain untouched, the absolute statement about no movement is not entirely factual.

Transcript excerpt English

… Now, here's the part that gets me. When Satoshi walked away in April of 2011, those coins were worth almost nothing. Bitcoin was trading for a couple of dollars at the time. He didn't walk away from a fortune. He walked away from a project. The fortune came later. As Bitcoin grew, those coins became worth thousands, then millions, then billions. Today, at current prices, that pile of coins is worth somewhere over a hundred billion dollar. It would make Satoshi one of the wealthiest people on the planet. And those coins are sitting in known Bitcoin addresses on the public blockchain, traceable by literally anyone. And in 15 years, not a single one has ever moved. Not one. So Satoshi has had access to what is now 9, 10, 11 figures of personal wealth. He has never touched any of it. Never spent it. Never sold a single coin. Never even moved it to a different address. Just left it there frozen. As if to say this was never about the money. He said it with the first 50 coins in the Genesis block. And he said it every da …

"Because inside that Genesis block, Satoshi embedded a message. Not in the protocol, not in a comment. He put it inside what's called the Coinbase parameter of the first transaction, which is a field where the miner can put arbitrary data. And the data he put there that has been preserved forever in the immutable record of every Bitcoin node on Earth read exactly this quote. The Times 03 January 2009, Chancellor on brink of second bailout for banks. "

"And 17 years later, the protocol still runs. The supply schedule has held exactly as designed. The cap of 21 million coins remains absolutely intact. Block zero still sits there with the Times headline embedded inside it, immutable on every node on Earth. The 50 coins from that first block still sit there too, permanently frozen. And this hundred billion dollars still sits untouched and addresses everyone can see and no one can move. "

"And then on April 23rd of 2011, sent his final known email to a developer named Mike Hearn. And the email said, and I'm quoting directly, I've moved on to other things. It's in good hands with Gavin and everyone. And then he disappeared. He hasn't spoken since. Not once. "

"I think maybe mid-July to to mid-October, we're going to start to see, you know, moves upward unless liquidity changes, unless, you know, war expands, which I think is probably the single biggest issue that would prevent, uh, a catalyst from moving us higher. Meaning, if we get clarity and we don't move higher, I I can only see that being some kind of war-oriented thing. "
